The William Cecil

Nice room and good food. There were problems with nights heat and hot water but they fixed after mid night Staff was very nice and helpful

Excellent position on the edge of Burleigh House grounds and a 10 minute walk from town . Food was good in Millys Bistro staff all very polite and pleasant

Room 7 was a little cramped for a twin bedded room for senior citizens

Beautiful hotel. Quite grand feeling and in keeping with Stamford’s general style and ambience.

Our room was above a noisy kitchen fan , but the manager, Sergio, was quick to address this and made everything right.

Clean and well-appointed spacious ‘cosy’ room with all mod cons including wall mounted tv, DAB radio, coffee machine and tea making facilities. Large on-suite bathroom with bath and shower.

Double bed was comfortable however the soft mattress might not be to everyone’s liking. It was perfectly acceptable for our recent two night stay.

Reception were so helpful. The food was delicious and staff could not have been nicer. Breakfast was top notch!

Nothing really.

Very pleasant hotel - no proper wardrobes in the room and restaurant area poor. Breakfast good if it could have been served in better surroundings.

Huge potential but awful stay

Cold room. Small bed. Numerous hazardous steps in room meant you had to sleep with light on. Bathroom freezing. Duvet not warm and hole in ceiling. Dripping wet windows. Staff unhelpful. Told no tables for dinner but no one in restaurant for at least the first hour of service and small plates not offered even though we were within the time window.

Peaceful lil gem short walk to Stamford shopping and close to Burleigh House...

Rooms are very warm...

Needs improvement

Bed too small. For cozy room read small, shower too small

I enjoy staying at the William Cecil on the infrequent occasions I am in Stamford. My room this time was very comfortable with an excellent bathroom and the atmosphere was relaxing as always.

Since my wife died I travel alone, which means I am having to pay for a double room with single occupancy. A room is a room and it has to be paid for, but the price includes breakfast and I had, in effect, to pay for two breakfasts. I asked about this, and was told the price I paid was for single occupancy, but that is not what the Booking.com website showed when I booked.

Location , parking , room was lovely & private garden was very nice

More ambience needed , was cold in lounge area & Milly restaurant which was off putting whilst having a meal felt we was just shoved in there no ambience & all the noise from the bar ie drinks machine etc & all doors open so really draughty & noise from reception not quite the romantic meal we was expecting Breakfast is strange have to do your own toast with toasters & butter & jam them at the serving table with no small pots to take to your table whilst your doing that your hot breakfast is getting cold on the table !

Had a downstairs room because of mobility issues. Clean but room only had one chair and us being old really needed one each.

Hole with electric wire hang from the ceiling and no blind in the bathroom for privacy. Breakfast back under cooker and far too fatty. Asked for no black pudding but it came with it anyway. Very oily too.

Not the best.Small portions, buffet made up of pastries and breads.Would have been nice to see meats and cheeses.

Room had a very worn carpet, on the threshold into the bathroom.Many cobwebs around both bedroom and bathroom.Bath screen had a gap where it met the bath, causing water to pool on the floor (bath panel had long term damage because of this. Burn marks from candles on the wall of the dining room. Generally tired throughout.

Great location and property.

No bath in our room. Breakfast not very warm or tasty. Expected better quality products. Extended wait for our evening meal. Confusion with our bill. Late night noise and disturbance due to party season.

Everything was excellent but for the 4 star rating I would expect the bathroom to be a bit more taken care of. There was some water damage on the bath and tiles. However, I am being picky. Overall I was delighted with my stay. The building, decor and Christmas decorations were beautiful.

Excellent food, comfortable room, helpful staff.

No shelf in shower for soap / shampoo. Fix the electric cable hanging from the ceiling!

Very comfortable beds, great location, we were in room 16. Good car parking. And all the staff were very helpful.

Alot of traffic noise in our room, as we were facing the road. Also I think there was damp in the corner of the ceiling which you dont expect to see in high class hotel.

Friendly staff, very comfortable beds and rooms. The location was excellent for exploring Stamford.

The ambiance of the hotel, easy going helpful and warm staff. Excellent food.A great way to relax.

We missed having a wardrobe or at keast shelves for jumpers etc.

Lovely room, very spacious and quiet. Comfy bed. Perfect location for us, an easy walk to get to where we wanted. A good choice of breakfast. Lovely lounge to have a coffee and cake in the afternoon.
